For model SSHA = SSH – ELAV from binary correlation FORTRAN output. Note that in this case, for Fig.2c, since we already have the anomaly (η‘), it is not necessary to define < η>.

Routine Tasks Yoyo, I would like you to make plots of downloaded data each time: 1. Satellite data SSH & SSHA plots – page 1 is for the entire pac10 domain: top panel is SSH & bottom panel is ssha; page 2 is western North Pacific west of 140E and from -10S to 40N; 2. Same as “1” but for the wind data. I also would like you to describe and report these plots to me on our Friday progress meeting – as part of your presentation. Thank you. Leo
Yoyo’s pac10-analysis tasks, A & B pac10-analysis locations B. Compare in details with Taiwan ship-ADCP Data: seasonal means. A. Compare in details with satellite in Luzon Strait & South China Sea: 1. means & StdDs: xy-contours (maps) both SSHA & geostrophic currents (mean+variance ellipses); 2. seasonal I hope you can present these results for your PhD Entrance exam to NCU in May/2012

Alu’s pac10-analysis STCC pac10-STCC analysis Means, eddies + PV etc: is there an STCC in the model? Alu, you have read many papers – so now you can apply what you have learned. BTW, I still want you to finish up your idealized case – do that first for OSM!! Write a DRAFT paper based on what you have.

IHOS - Taiwan Ocean Prediction (TOP) Research Highlights; Oct/20/2011; by L.Oey. • IHOS is developing an ocean current and wave prediction model: the Taiwan Ocean Prediction (TOP) system that eventually will include also air-sea (with typhoons) and air-sea-ice coupling, as well as biogeochemical processes. Three recent publications and an example of the simulated SST over the entire North Pacific Ocean are given below. • Chang, Y.-L. & L.-Y.

TOP sea-surface temperature (SST) on Jun/06/1988 during the developing stage of the strong 88-89 La Niña when waters as cold as 19oC is simulated in the eastern equatorial Pacific in excellent agreement with observation (http://www.pmel.noaa.gov/tao/elnino/la-nina-story.html#). TOP also simulates a beautiful meandering Kuroshio that separates off the eastern coast of Japan, as well as the intrusion of very warm waters (SST≈31oC) into the South China Sea through the Luzon Strait.
